When i first had installed the Unreal Engine 4, installed DirectX for me, and i’m Windows 8, Windows 8 doesn’t need DirectX, it is already installed.
Here is the picture in the installer.
You know… they should make an anti-detector in the installer to check if the computer haves the right version for the program?
Yeah… so.
I can remember the times DirectX had DLL’s which had the same version in the file info, but where in fact different versions!(it was DX 9 if I remember correctly).
I think thats why DirectX is always installed with games and tools, no matter which version is installed. Even Steam is doing this…
Maybe unreal engine 4 / Epic games launcher will be special by having this thing?
